The corn industry is eager to back the efforts of the Trump administration and it has some suggestions.
In an op-ed on AgirPulse, Corn Refiners Association President and CEO John Bode said that if President Trump follows four keys he will find success in growing and strengthening rural economies.
Those include:
- Eliminating excessive regulations
- A reliable energy infrastructure
- The continuation of tax policies for a strong economy
- The need to advance trade policy
Bode went on to share, “The success of the Trump administration in these efforts will reverberate throughout the country, building a strong, pro-growth foundation that will keep rural, suburban, and urban economies strong for generations to come.”
